Description
The Naval Air Warfare Center, Weapons Division (NAWCWD), intends to procure, on an other than full and open competition basis in accordance with FAR 6.302-1 a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Commercial contract with Sierracin Corporation, 12780 San Fernando Rd., Sylmar, CA 91342, for the acquisition of services to research and develop procedures to replace the indium tin oxide (ITO) currently used as the heater film in the deicing system of a V22 windscreen with aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) film.
The outer ply of the V22 windscreen is stretched acrylic (SA) and will be referred to here as the SA faceply. The Contractor shall apply the AZO heater film to the inside surface of the SA faceply using a process that does not heat the SA faceply above 60°C to ensure the SA faceply does not change shape and the surface does not thermally deform. Application of AZO shall use a large manufacturing magnetron sputtering chamber large enough to coat an actual V22 windscreen SA faceply. In addition, the process used to apply the AZO to the SA faceply must be of the appropriate scale to coat the entire inside surface of the SA faceply. In other words, the SA faceply cannot be cut up into smaller segments, coated and then reassembled.
Performance requirements for the AZO-coated coupons:• Sheet resistance of 18 ohms/sq or lower• Average values of visible light transmission (VLT) of 70% or higher• Average values of night vision transmission (NVIS) of 70% or higher
This effort shall be comprised of three phases, and the period of performance for this contract is estimated at 4-months for each phase for a total of 12-months.
In Phase 1, the Contractor shall develop the process parameters for AZO in a large manufacturing magnetron sputtering chamber using 4” x 12” x 0.25” coupons.
At the end of Phase 1, the contractor shall deliver at least one AZO-coated coupon that NAWCWD can measure to verify sheet resistance and transmission requirements listed above ...
